Ricoh to showcase how organisations can turn AI into real business results, at the Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2026 in Barcelona

• Ricoh will demonstrate how organisations can move beyond isolated AI experiments and integrate AI into everyday business processes to deliver measurable value
• Ricoh will showcase practical applications spanning AI, intelligent document processing, workflow automation and AI-ready infrastructure
• Two expert sessions will address key barriers to enterprise AI adoption, including fragmented information, governance, infrastructure, security and scaling AI beyond pilots

Madrid, 9 November 2026. Ricoh will showcase how organisations can move beyond AI experimentation and use artificial intelligence (AI) to create meaningful business value at Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo 2026, taking place from 9 to 12 November in Barcelona.

As AI becomes a part of everyday business, attention is shifting from adoption to integration: how organisations embed AI into existing processes, connect fragmented business information and build the infrastructure needed to deliver measurable value at scale. This shift from experimentation to integration is also central to Ricoh's Gartner speaking programme.

At Gartner, Ricoh will demonstrate how bringing together people, processes, data and technology can help organisations improve operational efficiency, make better use of business information and create more productive employee experiences. This connected approach will show how technology can be applied more effectively to address real business challenges to create more intelligent ways of working.

From experimenting with AI to integrating it into the business

For many organisations, the challenge is no longer simply whether to adopt AI but how to move beyond pilot projects to integrate it securely and effectively into everyday operations.

To this end, Ricoh believes it is necessary to approach the adoption of AI from a holistic perspective, taking into account not only the availability and quality of data but also process automation, security, governance and the technological infrastructure underpinning these applications.

At the Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo, Ricoh will show how organisations can leverage AI to automate complex workflows, extract insights from unstructured data and improve their decision-making processes. It will also address the importance of having infrastructure ready for AI workloads, including environments with GPU processing capabilities that enable a balance between performance, scalability and costs, in a solution the company calls "AI in a box"

"Artificial intelligence is forcing companies to rethink how they organise their processes, how they manage their data and how their teams work. The real challenge is getting all these elements to work together seamlessly. Our approach is to support organisations in turning AI into real, measurable improvements for their business - from technological infrastructure to automation and the employee experience - with an integrated, results-oriented vision." adds Ramon Martin, CEO of Ricoh Spain and Portugal and Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Ricoh Europe.
